Our Story

In January 2022, I established TWright Candle Company LLC.  A black women owned candle business, in Sacramento, CA, named after the owner, Teresa Wright.  Our vision is to create products that provide a unique, mature customer experience. All products are handcrafted in small batches.  Candles are made using natural soy wax, clean scent (phthalates free) fragrance oil, and other natural products. Every effort is made to purchase environmentally friendly goods and products.

My journey to candle making started as a candle enthusiast, purchasing candles at every opportunity.  My love for candles took a different direction in 2020, during COVID quarantine and while working a full-time job, remotely.  I thought, “I need something to do other than work, something exciting to keep me motivated, break up the monotony, or find a hobby.”  I decided to experiment with candle making!  I was hooked!  After a year of researching, making and testing candles for myself, and gifting to friends and family, I was confident with my products.

I’m inspired by the words of Maya Angelou – “Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it.”  I made it my business to make THIS my business!  I am passionate about what I do, enjoy making candles and it is truly my happy place.  I look forward to sharing my love of candles with others.
